I want to tell you a bit about myself where I come from and why I dragged Teala and myself into this position and created this team....

The only thing is I don't want you to think I am blowing my own Trumpet... That would be so far from the truth...

So here goes.

Before I became a Etsy Shop owner, I was a promotional Manger for a Salon, by background is that of a hairdresser and salon owner.

I am also for the record British, me being here in the Sates is a totally another story so we wont go there.

When I first approached Teala about the idea of this team I never for one moment thought it would take of like it has ..day two and we are at 65 members and counting, that blows me away and excites me all at the same time.

And its you guys we have to thank for that cause its YOU who makes up this team and it is YOU who will make it succeed.

You should all be really proud of yourself.......so now is the time to pat yourself on the back and say "Well done"

I am all about TEAM, I am in now ways in this for myself, being a business owner for many years I know that without the people around you you cant get anywhere.

I am also all about promoting ... I will always find ways to move things along and get my face out there.

And that means If I'm doing it your coming with me, so you better be ready for the ride of your life.

I am slightly crazy if you hadn't already realized this .... I'm driven by an unknown force that says "You will not fail"
I also love to blog, cause I believe blogging gets you out into a place that gets you noticed.....
I have been blogging for about 8 months now and I have a personal blog that has a fairly good following ...

Having a personal blog and a business blog allows me to promote my shop in more than one place and also gives me totally different and diverse followers.

I have also meet some wonderful people that have pushed me along and given me ideas that may be I would not have come up with along... see having people around you moves you along in away that maybe you wouldn't move along if you where by yourself....

This blog will be a small key to your success call this home and our team page our backyard ....

On this blog we will get to know each other so well that you will feel like you have meet each other face to face.

If you have the ability to Social Network you have the ability to get your face and work out there.... its key to your success...

If your reading this and thinking but I don't have a blog .... I don't know what to blog about... I have no idea how to even get started then ask for help.

I am more than willing to help anyone get set up and give them ideas on what to do... Ill even make you a blog header for your site .... what I cant do is blog for you cause as you may have noticed I'm running three blogs now and boy believe me that's some going.

If you see me post a discussion that says "You are Invited to" you can pretty much guess its a promotion a place where you just may get noticed....

I guess that's whats good about me and Teala she has learn so much about Treasury's and BnR's ...and the fact that she is so willing to share her knowledge with us is a blessing..she is also goal driven... and loves to see others achieve goals as well as achieving her own goals.
me I'm your promotion guru...I love to promote and see others get their shops seen.

So here are some promotions for you guys to go check out if you haven't already

Petite Hermine ..... she invites you to add your Etsy shop DaSSanaDeZines a fellow team member invites you to submit your story behind your shop and your name. You will also have the chance of being a featured seller.

Here on The Undiscovered I will be picking one of you each week to be a featured seller so be ready I could be pouncing on you pretty soon.

On Saturday I will post about Blogging ideas and places where you can link up with others and get yourself out there.....

If you know of any promotional sites that we as a team can get involved with ... post a comment with the link

Well I'm signing of now and I just hope I didn't bore you all to death
